Family Advisory Councils

Family Advisory Councils (FACs) are groups formed by families and caregivers of patients to provide feedback and insights on healthcare services. They serve as a bridge between families and healthcare providers, ensuring that patient and family perspectives are included in decision-making processes. FACs typically collaborate with hospitals, clinics, or nursing homes to foster improvements in care, enhance patient experiences, and promote policies that support patient and family needs. By participating in discussions and initiatives, these councils aim to create a more responsive and compassionate healthcare environment.
